White smoke on hard acceleration

[J2da]

Im also having the same exact problem here, and have replaced the air/oil sperator also. I cant seem to pinpoint the issue, could be piston rings or head gasket though. Hoping that isn't the issue but does anyone know where to start looking?

Finally after taking my car back to the dealer regarding the white smoke on accelleration ,which they said was due to quote "found to happen when driving with high transversal acceleration and high revs, solution is a Motor Sport oil seperator available to these conditions" ???

But as luck have it when I was about to pull out of there car park service area, I started the car and a HUGE PUFF of White smoke appeared that almost covered the carpark area!!
Lucky the head mechanic was there , he immediatly said it was a AOL seperator on the way out.
As I tried to tell them all along!!
Its booked in next week to replace the AOL ,so here is hopeing that this problem will finally be fixed.

Will give you update ASAP
Cheers all

Hope a new AOS does the trick .... The motorsport oil separator is what I was originally getting at when asking about direction of travel, but once you said straight that eliminated the idea. Our cars can puff smoke at the track when accelerating at high rpm out of a hard left turn. The motorsport separator solves this and I had one installed last year. I'm surprised at the original recommendation as it would take some really aggressive driving outside of a track environment ... plus you were going straight.

Keep in mind one of the main causes of AOS failures is overfilling the oil.

Do a compression and a leakdown test. This will tell you if these are your issues.

Hi All,
Well finally after getting the AOS replaced under warranty (it was a used car bought from a Reliable Porsche Dealer)\

The smoke problem is FIXED!!
NO more white smoke on startup, even if the car has not been driven for several days, ALSO the acceleration up a Ramp has been fixed, no more embarresing clouds of white smoke screen to be seen!!

Thanks all for your advice.
